My cholesterol thanks to medication and your recipes has gone from 10 down to 4.4 in eight weeks. The lowest it has ever been and I am ecstatic.

I am a great believer in your books. I have type 2 diabetes and had to lose weight and was shown your books. I have now gone down 6 dress sizes and have kept my weight down for the past few years and feel great. I had been taking blood pressure tablets for 13 years and now I don’t have to, and my diabetes is under control. I hope this letter gives other readers encouragement.

After visiting your website I quickly ordered your books. I can’t begin to tell you what a change your recipes have brought to our lives and just at the right time. My husband has cholesterol and high blood pressure problems and I’ve been battling a weight problem for years, plus Yo-yo dieting. My husband has lost 18lbs and I’ve lost 22lbs. We both feel so healthy and wow there’s no getting bored with all those recipes. I haven’t seen any health recipe books in our bookstores here in South Africa that come anywhere near yours. Yours are beautifully illustrated and having the nutritional break down is so very helpful

As soon as I started using your books I realized I had been cheating myself. I am no longer deprived any more and enjoy eating healthy, nutritious meals. I now have achieved my goal weight and my health has improved and I have so much more energy. I am so happy and confident compared to the old me that once weighed 286lbs. I now weigh 154lbs – Annette you saved my life.

I am a 62 year old male disabled pensioner and I had a weight problem. I was 300lbs and getting heavier all the time. I was told about your cookbooks and since using them I have lost 88lbs in 36 weeks without any exercise. I was border line with a sugar problem but not any more so I am very happy, thank you.

Since cooking your recipes I have lost 90lbs, almost another person. Thanks to your wonderful books, I have never looked back.

Thank you Annette, your books have been my greatest inspiration to losing weight. I have been overweight from the age of 7. Over the years I just gradually got bigger. I had tried every diet and joined almost every club, only ever with short-term success, the diets were always so boring. I lost 88lbs in 18 months and feel truly wonderful. I’ve never been happier or more confident. I will always use your books Annette and plan on never gaining weight again.

My 8 year old daughter Lisa entered your recipe for Wicked Chocolate cake in the Royal Easter Fair. She entered in the children and student section for chocolate cakes and guess what?! She won first prize!!! The judges had no idea that the cake was low in fat.

There are many low-fat cookbooks out these days, but unfortunately they have recipes that a ‘normal’ family wouldn’t eat. Thank you! Thank you, for putting out a low fat cookbook with ‘normal’ recipes.

We discovered your cookbooks while visiting my sister last year. My sister had been using your recipes and had lost 25lbs and looked great. We even lost weight while we were there as they used your recipes all the time and we both came home five pounds lighter and had eaten really good food! We now have our own copies and so do my two daughters and sister who live in Canada, we all love them.
